3. Bajre Ki Roti With Jaggery Including bajra (pearl millet) is eaten in all Indian households during the winter season. This is because bajra has a high starch content that enables energy generation in the body. This process causes an increase in blood circulation and as a result, leads to higher body temperature. This is amongst the very popular healthy winter recipes because these rotis are high in nutrition and keep you full for longer.
